needed to get his number last night up close to where kemp's was. and he didn't do that. he didn't do it in forsyth. he didn't do it next door in cherokee county. he didn't do it in this whole set of counties kind of ringing the outer edge of the atlanta metro area here. in fact, on top of that, when you break down the turnout levels, in forsyth, cherokee county, they were relative to november's turnout, these had two of the lowest turnouts of any -- 159 counties in georgia. these were in the bottom six in terms of turnout yesterday relative to november general election. i think it strongly suggests that one thing that was happening here is that that republican voter that voted for brian kemp, that voted for republican statewide candidates last november, but that didn't vote for herschel walker, you saw a lot of those voters, it looks like a lot of them just did not show up yesterday and did not vote. >> wow. fascinating to see how it all shook out. chuck schumer just spoke last hour about how this win gives democrats more raw power and breathing ro

he ended up underperforming brian kemp, brad raffensperger. one thing that they had in common that was different than herschel walker was, they stood up to donald trump. they defeated donald trump in their home of georgia. herschel walker has been aligned with the former president, donald trump. donald trump picked him out of a host of other republicans. i think the question that i have going forward, we look at turnout, are the republican voters that we saw voting for brian kemp and for brad raffensperger, who skipped the senate race or ended up voting for raphael warnock, do they show up? to me, that's the difference between herschel walker possibly pulling off an upset or him losing. >> do you think democrats would find it surprising and troubling that there have been so few people in the fulton county stronghold that vaughan was at? >> the pattern is that democrats, by and large, are early voters. either in person, like you see in georgia, or by mail. republicans wait to the last second to vote. not only am i interested in, how is the turn
